Jay Rome Names Top 5

Jay Rome recently released the top 5 teams that he is considering, Georgia, Clemson, Florida, Tennessee and Alabama all made the cut. Rome was recently in Athens to visit the Bulldogs and really enjoyed his trip. While Rome was in Athens he had chance to see the dorms and watch the team practice. He was really impressed with how Georgia incorporates the tight ends into their offense. He liked that Georgia uses their tight ends like many pro teams use them.

Rome is not one to shy away from competition, some people think that with the amount of talent Georgia currently has at tight end will turn Rome away, but that is not case. He loves competition and would love a chance to compete against Orson Charles and Aron White for playing time.

Jay Rome Loved Athens

Jay Rome decided to visit Athens before the G-Day game this weekend this was probably a very good idea as he got the coaching staff's full attention on Tuesday. Rome really enjoyed his visit and had this to say about the Bulldogs "Georgia has really impressed me when I have been up there." Rome was initially favoring Clemson, which many believed was due to his father being a player there. However, recently Rome has stated on numerous occasions that he does not a leader. 


Rome had chance to see the academic buildings, athletic facilities and attended practice. It was at practice where he saw Orson Charles and came away extremely impressed with the first year Bulldog. With the Bulldogs always relying on their tight ends and sending quite a few to the next level, one can one wonder why Rome wouldn't make the Bulldogs one of his favorites. 


The coach that has been recruiting Rome the hardest is coach Richt and they were able to get plenty of one on one time on Tuesday. Rome is really able to talk to coach Richt and this trip further sealed a bond between the two.

Recruits On Campus Today

It is being reported by UGASports.com that three recruits were on campus today. Christian LeMay, Chris Conley and Jay Rome were all in attendance. LeMay is the #2 QB nationally and Rome is the #1 TE nationally according to Scout.com. These two recruits along Conley who is a GA Top 50 recruit would really excel the Bulldogs towards the top of the recruiting ranks.
